A motor that size is also not needed to reach 100 in an e-revo. Many of the options already suggested would be a good start. Either way it's something that will take some experimentation to get right and more than just the motor mount and size needs to be in the equation.
RootzMan, we all know that much of what is on here is a matter of opinion so no need beating the subject to prove whatever point or feeling you have about it. You do have to keep in mind that most of the people here are offering their opinions based on personal experience and facts which goes much further than just someone stating their opinion who has never tried any of this before.

Thanks for chiming in TexasSP. Not that it's my thread but anyway...A couple of points:
1) Don't recall anyone saying anything about a truggy
2) If it were that easy to get an E-Revo up to 100mph, I'm pretty sure that somebody would have done it already. To my knowledge, no body has. I have spent a great deal of time and money trying and not succeeded. Have you?
3) The only point that I was making is that I believe people should not call each other stupid and that they should not state their opinions as fact. For sure, many of our forum brethren state their opinions as fact. If you feel the need to defend them then quite frankly I think you are promoting narrow-mindedness and dogma whereas, I would imagine that forums exist to further understanding, rather than limit it. Surely, if some body has an opinion that they can back up with experience, their opinion would be all the more credible if they were to share their experience.
4) I have some knowledge of the achievements of our fellow contributor X-Y and, I can tell you that there is no doubt in my mind that he knows far more about speed racing electric RC's in general than all but a handful of people Worldwide. His English may not be great but his engineering is.
Now, I propose we return to the subject at hand; The not inconsiderable matter of propelling Kevlar's Revo to 100mph and above.
So, Kev. Any progress?
